A tiny static blog generator written in Go.
Markdown in, HTML out - no fuss (except for me, who had to deal with Nix and Tailwind not playing very nicely with one another).

• public/ - Static assets (scripts, CSS, UI libs, etc.)
• templates/ - HTML templates for blog posts and pages
• content/ - Your actual content:
  • Blog posts: all *.md files
  • Pages: all *.html files
• out/ - The generated site output

I built oojsite to be as simple as possible. No DSL or weird templating syntax (ahem, ahem, Jekyll).

• You can insert any post into any page template by using your blog post "tags" frontmatter (i.e; tags: ["posts"] -> {{ .posts }})
• Files you want in your output MUST BE TRACKED!!! (ie; git add site/blog.html, but not out/blog.html)
• You can use TailwindCSS or just regular CSS rules
• Your public/static content (ie; scripts, CSS, assets, etc...) go in public/
• Any templates you want for your blog posts, write them in templates/, and use the "template" frontmatter to match it
• Blog posts are recognized as all *.md files, and pages are recognized as all *.html files

Once you've written whatever content you wanted, just hit nix run - it will take care of the rest and give you your built website in out/.

Hint: Use nix run .#watch-(no-)rb to track changes across your content for live-reloads.

• Add partials support
• Add Docker support
• Add CI/CD (ie; Github Actions)

• Sometimes, for no apparent reason, it builds really fast (feature, not a bug, perhaps?)
• If you make and save changes too quickly, your Nix cache might get locked (ie; error: SQLite database ... is busy)
• The above will happen, but Nix will simply ignore (?) it
• Sometimes, permissions on out/ may get garbled up - just delete it and re-run to fix it
